Workshop Description:
Renowned for her glowing landscapes and expert use of color, Janice Robertson will guide you through the art of crafting stunning scenes in acrylic using a palette of just five colors. This workshop is more than just lessons; it’s an opportunity to immerse yourself in the world of color theory including temperature, neutrals and saturation and how to avoid the risk of muddy colour, while discovering how to create depth and emotion in your work with a limited palette.
In this workshop, you’ll gain invaluable insights into Janice's techniques, including her methods for blocking in, assessing values, glazing and direct painting, texture, calligraphy, and brushwork. learn how to make the most of your color choices, and connect with fellow artists in a supportive and inclusive environment.
Day 1 will start with a group critique with work from home - any medium, any subject matter. Maximum of 2 pieces per person.
Whether you’re a brush novice for the first time or you're looking to refine your skills, you'll walk away with new perspectives and inspiration to fuel your creative journey.
The workshop will run from 10:00 am until 4:00 pm, with a one hour lunch break. We can’t wait to see what beautiful landscapes you’ll create.
